The inventory is based on the inventory associated with the physical collection held at the AJA.
Each Inventory has “Series” associated with them.
After clicking on the Series title, you will see a list of folders. Each folder is digitized and will contain all the documents in that folder.
SEARCHING:
When you enter a term in the search box, you will be searching every document in the digital collection. Returns will show all folders that contain your search term.
Ways to search:
General Searching: The search engine uses string matching to determine search results. That means, for each query term, the primary rule is this: what you put in the form text box is what the search engine will look for in full or in part. Example: searching for "wash" will match wash, washer, Washington, etc. Example: searching for “anti” will match antisemites, anticipated, anti-Semitism
Capitalization: Case sensitivity of the search term is not retained in searches by the search engine. Example: searching for “year” will match YEAR and Year and year.
SEARCHING WITHIN THE FOLDER:
Once you have pulled up a folder, it will be possible to search the pages in the PDF for your search term. Depending on your browser, you can either click on the magnifying glass icon or use the “Ctrl F” shortcut.
